The Tufts University Department of Music presents the Ludovico Ensemble in a concert of Younghi Pagh-Paan’s chamber works. Although Pagh-Paan (b. 1945) is one of the most celebrated composers of her generation, her music is seldomly presented outside of her native South Korea or her professional home base of Germany. While she is one of the most frequently performed composers at the “Darmstädter Ferienkurse” as well as the “Donaueschinger Musiktage,” a perusal of her performance history yields only a single event in the United States; a performance of a her work U-Mul on a concert in New York in 2019.

Ludovico will play “NO-Ul” for viola, cello and bass; “Die Insel schwimmt” and “PONG-KYONG” for piano and percussion; and “Horizont auf hoher See” for string quartet, performed by Gabriela Diaz and Lilit Hartunian, violin; Anna Griffis, viola; David Russell, cello; Randall Zigler, bass; Yoko Hagino, piano; and Nicholas Tolle, percussion.

Due to COVID regulations, live audiences at Tufts Music events are restricted to individuals with a Tufts ID only who have filled out the university’s Daily COVID-19 Screening Survey. For others, the concert will be live streamed through Tufts Music Live Streaming.
